To answer my own question, I crossed on Monday evening and insurance was available for 25 euros for three months m'cycle cover from a booth on lane 35 on the Turkish side.
This was a damn good deal compared to when I entered Turkey from Bulgaria at Aziziye Sinir Kapisi in Jul-17 when I was charged over 100 euros for the same. I knew it was a scam but I had no choice... lose five hours going to another crossing or pay the extortion!
Kurdistan is fascinating but a bit warm in July... high 40s most days.
